When preparing to cast off from a dock where the current is holding your boat against it, you should cast off the bow line last. This allows the stern of the boat to swing away from the dock, preventing the boat from being pushed against the dock by the current. By keeping the bow line secured until the last moment, you maintain better control and ensure a smoother departure.

Why latching current is more than holding current in thyristor?

Holding current is a kind of Imin i.e., a minimum rating current which should not be decreased less than this limit so that SCR will be off(Maximum limit).Whereas latching current is again a limit which is Imini.e., a minimum current that should be there to make it on(Minimum limit).So obviously Holding current is more than latching current.If u still have the confusion go through the link below ALi RAZA


Why SCRs are connected in parallel?

When the load current exceeds the SCR current rating, SCRs are connected in parallel to share the load current. Further the holding currents of the devices should not be so much different that at reduced load current one of the device gets turned-off because of fall of current through it blow its holding current value.

It depends on where the holding company is located and the shareholding that the holding company has in the JV. At a minimum, the JV should be included in the Holding company's accounts as an investment and consolidated as such.
